A popular feature of BlueSky that really gets new users’ feeds going is their Starter Packs.

Mastodon Migration Blog is replicating this good idea for the Fediverse with follow packs. These are csv files that can be downloaded and imported into Mastodon to follow a bunch of users around a topic.

    Nice idea, will follow how this develops, but — FFS, the pack CSVs are all on Google Docs.

    Independent, trustworthy repository, plz.

      You’re free to rehost them somewhere and if you contact them, they might even mention it on their site.

        I’m not criticising my right to put in extra work to make promising efforts available on platforms that do not track users; I criticise the fact that the developers didn’t do this in the first place.

        But good work putting the onus on me, you complete corporate rando.
